PVC.- También conocido como “foil” y membrana de PVC. Es un recubrimiento plástico adherido a un tablero de madera mediante termo formado. La variedad en colores, diseños, texturas y brillos es muy amplia. Los cantos o bordes son continuos, a diferencia de los de frentes de melamína en que son cubiertos por una cinta. Una de sus características sobresalientes es que los frentes pueden llevar casi cualquier tipo de contorno o molduras simulando madera labrada y manteniendo la continuidad del material de recubrimiento. Son materiales muy limpios y resistentes a la humedad, pero hay que evitar someterlos a temperaturas superiores a la ambiente. Su precio es por lo general superior al de la melamína, sin embargo habiendo gran variedad de calidades en materiales de importación y nacionales los precios pueden variar importantemente entre uno y otro proveedor.
PVC Foil. - It is plastic membrane covering a wood board by means of a thermoforming process. There is a wide variety in colors, designs, textures and gloss. The edges are a continuation of the material on the front, unlike those of melamine in which are covered with a strip of material. One of its remarkable characteristics is that fronts can take almost any type of contour or moldings with no material seams or unions. These materials are very clean and humidity resistant, but not for using under high temperatures. There are many qualities in import and domestic materials, consequently their prices may vary depending on the vendor.
